NEW YORK — The Liberty began their quest as the Eastern Conference’s newest superteam as Breanna Stewart and Courtney Vandersloot were officially introduced on Thursday morning.
The two additions have combined for three WNBA championships and eight All-Star game appearances, giving head coach Sandy Brondello a surplus of talent heading into her second season leading the Liberty squad.
“Christmas came in February,” Brondello said at a press conference at Barclays Center. “You always want to coach the best. You’re all about winning. So, for Stewie, and Courtney and [Jonquel Jones] to want to come to New York, that says a lot of the coaching staff which I think is really good.
